Starting yesterday, if you tweet an emoji at Google, it will most likely respond with a bunch of relevant and related results. Yay! Words are so overrated, right?
Example: Tweet a burger emoji @Google, and Google will respond with a link to Google search results for the best burger in your area on a map.
The feature will apparently work with over 200 different emoji for food, sites and activities near you. There will also be easter eggs! EASTER EGGS ARE THE BEST.
Try it today!
Did you buy a new MacBook Pro with Touch Bar? Have you noticed a shorter than expected battery life? You’re not alone.
An apparently large number of MacBook Pro with Touch Bar users are claiming to get as little as 3-6 hours of battery life on a single charge. The device is advertised to have a 10 hour battery life. Specifically, up to 10 hours of wireless web browsing, up to 10 hours of iTunes movie playback, and up to 30 days of standby time on a single charge.
Battery life also differs between users based on screen brightness, background processes, and other factors, and it’s important to note battery life could be initially reduced until Spotlight finishes indexing your new MacBook Pro.
Apple’s website provides tips for maximizing battery life on the MacBook Pro, including updating to the latest version of macOS, optimizing Energy Saver settings in System Preferences, dimming the screen’s brightness to the lowest comfortable level, and turning off Wi-Fi while not connected to a network.
Additional battery optimization advice includes performing a fresh install of macOS Sierra and resetting the SMC.
However, if you’re still only getting 3-6 hours of battery? Go see your local Apple guy, cos that bleep’s just not right.
